I decided to use a social networking site as one of the websites to analyse as they are very popular in today's modern culture and are used by mostly 14 - 35 yr olds all over the world.
I decided to use myspace as i feel it offers alot more generally in that you can personalize your individual profile in many ways, and myspace is well known for its music scene, promoting unknown bands [which it advertises alot on its homepage]. I like the layout of myspace's homepage, I think the one thing it has over other social networking sites is the options to interact with things like video and music and images which is shown within the red box, and green box. I think the layout is sectioned off well, and visually its plain and simple, which is good for its target audience as beginners may not know how to use the networking site and be put off therefore not sign up to the site, however the design allows them to feel comfortable in using myspace as its easy to use.
